I am using ubuntu 14.04 on my computer and when i boot, the bootloader graphics dont show. I am using the proprietary Nvidia drivers so i can edit videos. This isnt a big problem, its just annoying.

Press c on grub to get in the console and then enter videoinfo.

Note down the highest resolution and color depth available. E.g 1920x1080x32.
Load ubuntu and enter in the terminal:

sudo nano /etc/default/grub

Find this line #GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480 and add the following:

GRUB_GFXMODE=1920x1080x32    
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep

(Add your own resolution and color depth). Save it, exit and enter in the terminal:

echo "FRAMEBUFFER=y" | sudo tee -a /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash
sudo update-grub2
sudo update-initramfs -u -k all
